BRAVE OCEAN against its type
Built in 2010, it is the same age as the median chemical tanker on this register (build year 2010, 1,951 vessels with a known build year). At 26,328 gross tonnage it is larger than 61% of the other 1,899 chemical tankers with a recorded tonnage. It is one of 402 chemical tankers here under the Liberia flag, 17.2% of the 2,344 on the register. Its MRV returns name it STOLT FACTO for 2021–2023 and BRAVE OCEAN for 2025. The reported port of registry changed: George Town (2021–2022), then Georgetown (2023), then Monrovia (2025).
Its 3,143 t of CO₂ for 2025 is 43% below the median of 5,533 t among the 1,483 chemical tankers on this register that reported for 2025. Per nautical mile it emitted 270.1 kg CO₂, close to the type median of 250.2 kg. It logged 932 hours at sea against a median of 2,109 hours for its type that year. 0.0% of its 2025 emissions were at berth; the median for chemical tankers was 6.6%. Across 4 years with reported emissions, the highest was 2022 (12,847 t) and the lowest 2023 (1,386 t). Its efficiency percentile within the type went from 13 in 2021 to 10 in 2025 (lower is more efficient). Of the 5 comparable vessels listed below with a 2025 return, 0 reported a lower CO₂ per nautical mile than this vessel.

Efficiency against its own type2025
Position 142 of 1,348 qualifying chemical tankers by EEOI, at the 10th percentile. The dashed line is the type median, 14.4; this vessel reported 8.0.
EEOI divides emissions by transport work, which for this vessel and year was 393,377,972 tonne-miles over 11,638 nautical miles.
Reported CO₂ by year
Reported CO₂ in 2025 was 28.5% lower than in 2021, for EU/EEA voyages only. No return is recorded for 2024, so the series has gaps.
From 2023 to 2025, emissions rose 126.8% while distance sailed rose 239.6%and CO₂ per nautical mile fell 33.2%.That points mainly to how much the vessel sailed, rather than the other.
